The Chocolate One

The Chocolate One

I mean really, we could stop right there. Healthy chocolate? Sold. But then I wouldn’t get to tell you about the amazing health benefits that this smoothie offers. Organic raw cacao is the purest possible form of chocolate and has antioxidants through the roof (as much as 40 times MORE than blueberries). It also has been known to boost mood and act as an anti-depressant, as well as supply magnesium and calcium (more than cow’s milk… yes, you read that right). If cacao’s major health benefits aren’t proof that God so loves the world, I don’t know what is! After the cacao, we add a little bit of maple syrup to cut the bitter taste and add DNA-protecting antioxidants, banana to give you some potassium which is great for heart health, and almond butter to top it all off with some healthy fat and protein.

TIP: ADD A SERVING OF LEAFY GREENS (TRY KALE OR SPINACH) AND THE TASTE IS NOT ALTERED AT ALL!
